SHEPHERDSVILLE — Sunbelt Rentals would like to open a store in Bullitt County.

However, as part of the store’s layout, it would like to have an above-ground storage facility for gasoline and diesel fuel.

When The Carolina Group, which is handling the transaction, applied for a conditional-use permit, it was denied the above-ground storage of gasoline since it is currently not allowed in the county’s planning regulations.

Attorney Eric Farris hopes a text amendment would solve that issue, at least in the city of Shepherdsville.
